I've tried after killing all daemons (reboot) but I'll try the killall esd you 
suggest, too.

I've played with all other formats, still no sound. What's the default format? 
While tweaking with it befre learning of the RH MP3 tweakage, my son and I goofed 
with it quite a bit.

I'm wondering if my issues aren't with a deeper level setting, but I don't know 
where that could be.
